Who Wall Street Bought in 2008

Who Wall St. bought? Short answer: All of the above.













The system is broken.

I had a hard time following what happened, but it seems they told him to come back and talk when the agenda has time allotted for anyone/everyone to talk. Seemed like they said he was basically just another citizen and doesn't deserve special treatment?

Or did I miss something in all the chanting?

Now on livestream: Protesters who were attempting to close their accounts at a CitiBank in NYC are currently locked inside the building and being arrested.

If these protesters want to succeed with gaining support with their supposed goal (to make those responsible for the financial crisis be held accountable...which I support), they need to get rid of their 13 Demands right HERE.

It makes them look like fiscal accountability wasn't the real reason they started protesting in the first place. Maybe Goldman Sachs has some people on the inside steering this moverment...steering it off a cliff.

A just world frightens those who gain much from injustice.

Your deceptive discourse is clearly noted, BigBadBrian. You do not speak for a group of people, you speak for yourself only. Moreover, you are of the sorts that clearly practice decption and corruption as a daily life pattern. Personally, I do not want your sorts support.
However, indeed, I do thank you for providing clear evidence that you are indeed not only partaking of corruption but indeed relishing corruption.

Cheers to you and yours!

Your implied argument is retarded, (remove Brain, insert Sadist) These people aren't protesting that corporations exist/make money. They are protesting that the people that damaged the economy so badly aren't being held accountable for their actions. There's no regulation. There's no prosecution. There's been practically nothing to make sure it doesn't happen again. They fucked it all up and were given huge bags of money as a reward with no real consequence to what they'd done -- and they have the audacity to push for even FEWER rules on them with the bizarre idea that less regulation means they'll do a better job.

Clearly, they care about money more than anything; more than this country, more than your life, more than my life. How many examples do we need of companies ignoring what they should be doing in order to get a better profit without really being held to account when it blows up (in some cases literally) in their faces?

And when people say, "Gee, apparently we can't trust these people to control themselves, maybe we should place some regulations around this" (as any sensible person would do when faced with catastrophe), they throw one hell of a fit and make veiled threats that somehow OUR actions are going to be what destroys the economy (even though they created the situation to begin with!)

Let's put it this way -- if you owned a business (I can't recall if you said you owned your own IT consulting firm or not) and someone working for you royally screwed up to the point that it just decimated your company's ability to make money, and you were having to lay people off, would you hold the responsible party accountable? Would you fire him/her? Would you put greater measures in place to ensure that a fuck up like that didn't happen again? And how would you feel if the people responsible threw a hissy fit insisting that you were going to destroy the company after they'd already royally fucked it?


There is a large-scale effort to discredit normal people that are rightfully pissed off in this country about what's going on, to claim they are unamerican and that they are a threat to freedom and democracy. That is disgraceful. These people aren't really much different in origin or spirit that the Tea Party people; the only differences so far are that they aren't carrying guns and making veiled threats at the president. I've heard you belittle atheistic people here before as lacking morals, but it is a true lack in moral and ethical code for the people that have the audacity to attack average people that have lost their homes. I truly wonder how people can wage a coordinated attack campaign on this movement and feel okay inside that they are doing the right thing. It is pathetic.

I hope these people don't get co-opted by the corporatist machine like the tea partiers did. I'd like to actually see something productive come out of this. Makes me wish our president was a lot more like Teddy Roosevelt. Too big to fail means too big to exist.

A lot of protections we used to enjoy as a nation have slowly and systemically been stripped away. When Exxon-Mobil merged, it brought back the two largest pieces of Standard Oil, which had been broken up in 1911. When a company or industry gets to the point that they are willing to destroy our economy to seek profits, and don't show any repentance, they are a danger to our way of life and the government has a responsibility to step in and protect the american people.

I am amplification.

I think that the correct thing happened. Frustration does not express itself rationally. And the people at the spot and conversation in time....are sick of listening to Resume's.

I am not interested in 13 points or 3 rules or 6 sicks.....I think the very point that no demands are actually expressed is the point.

Frustration is just Frustrating for the establishment.

Sorry. The Baby Boomers will not control my agenda anymore. They got theirs. And it is proven they do not share. Bad people in the Sandbox.

Now it is a time to share new ideals and a different direction.

Murdoch has had 15 to 20 years to get out his message.....can someone else talk for a change? Or does that scare you?

John Lewis is indeed a civil rights hero, but he's also currently a Democratic congressman, and there have been times when he has backed the party leadership when perhaps he shouldn't have. I suspect that maybe some might have questioned "which John Lewis" was showing up to speak.

Some Obama cheerleaders from DU - one of them (Steven Leser) literally a FAUX News employee attempted to hijack OWS last week, so it's not a bad thing that the protestors are watching out for this sort of thing.

Just for a break: I know I am a corporate stooge but I have no connection via uh money...with this cartoon break in the movie:

It is funny to me....that the US is even thinking of having a Mormon for President....makes the whole thing work.

Who Wall Street Bought in 2008

I think that spreadsheet is all about the corporations giving money to the one they think is going to win.

Obama raised over $700 million, that lists just a couple of percent of that. Obama was particularly good at having a very wide fund base which should be reassuring. The fact his second biggest contributor was the worst company in the world, Goldman Sachs, has to be taken in the context that they gave 1/700th of his cash so logically you would think that wouldn't be enough to buy him.

Of course in an ideal world he would have refused it...

The flip side is that if you don't believe in the Christian mythology like the majority of people on the planet then does that not make one crazy superstition is as good as the other?

The Morman one is easier to laugh at and disprove simply because it was made up more recently.

Sorry dudes. I'm having a tough time reading some of these very long posts. White writing on black background with super long text is kinda difficult to stay focused.

Carry on.
